March 2018 hauls - Stuff for the 3rd best month of the year!
ShoothimNow:
So they kicked me 3 days before they shipped them? Are you serious? Well... I got my $80 back at least...
Edit 1) TJ is reiterating to me that I am still a Ballsack (God, how I love Kickstarter support....)
Edit 2) N64 to USB adapter doesn't seem to work based on comments
Edit 3) Where's the 5555?

Mine arrived as well.
I played about 30 minutes of Mario Kart and 30 minutes of Goldeneye.
It's super light to the point of being a little strange. The analog stick feels pretty good. Overall, the buttons feel good to me, but I had trouble getting used to playing Goldeneye with the new button layout. I especially had trouble using the c-buttons. I kept hitting c-down when I was trying to hit c-right. I'm not sure if the c-button locations are bad or if it's just something I would have to get used to. Overall I'm happy with the controller, but I'm glad that I only ordered one.
I'm not a big Smash player, so I can't comment on how that feels. I know that will be a big deal for some, but it won't matter much to me.
Megatron:
Took a little while to get used to Goldeneye for me, as well. However, after a few stages I was adapted and I love it. Played a ton of Star Fox and OoT, and those feel great. Although the best improvement in game I have found is Mario 64. Makes the game feel like a Wii U or Switch game with this new layout. So I am definitely happy with my purchase.
The controller really is well done and the buttons feel great....eeeeexcept for L and R. Maybe it's just mine, but my L and R shoulders feel loose and a little fragile. Like, if I press them too hard they'll break. Nothing defective, they just don't feel as tough as the rest of the controller. Maybe it's just in my head and I'm just used to the heavy duty shoulder buttons of the PS4 and Xbox1, but if I had one complaint about the controller, it'd be that.

I also had trouble getting used to the Z buttons. I definitely like what they did with the Z buttons, but until I can get used to it, it's messing with my muscle memory.

I also finished up my Okami collection today. For the record, I also have the digial version of the PS3 game.
If anyone has a scan of the DS game, I would appreciate it.
And I finally found one of these again. I passed on one of these about 5 years ago and haven't seen another since.
